Beathe's of Lewis County, West Virginia

I have a friend whose last name is Beathe.His grandfather was William Beathe.William lived in Highland County, VA.I understand from my friend that some of his family also lived in WV, but he isn't sure where.His mother was Anna Beathe.Anna had a sister, Frances who is still living in Reston, VA.My friend said that the family originally came from Ireland.Supposedly the original ancestor in this country had fled Ireland and changed his surname because he was being sought by the authorities for murdering someone.Does anyone have any information concerning this?
Thanks,
Carol
